Daniel RadcliffeHarry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe says he is ‘bored’ with people mistaking him for Prince Harry. Monsters & Critics has the story

The brunette ‘Harry Potter’ actor has revealed people in foreign countries often mistake him for the flame-haired royal because he is so well spoken.

He explained: “I’ve never hung out with Prince Harry. I’ve not met him and I don’t know any of his friends.

“This is the distinction other countries need to make about England. There are levels of posh. I am posh and middle-class, absolutely, but he’s on another echelon of posh. I’m certainly not in his circle and I would probably not come across anyone in his circle.”

    Clearly those who mistake Radcliffe for Prince Harry, are frustratingly having the same problem as I. That is, everytime we enter PH name into the search engine, Harry Potter comes up.

    Haha nice one Hale! I’m sure we’ve all experienced that one!

    Yeah, I’ve had that problem. I signed up for “Prince Harry” news alerts on Yahoo! and almost all the results these days are about Harry Potter. I will be glad when “Half-Blood Prince” makes it to DVD and they start promoting #7, which fortunately doesn’t have the word “Prince” in the title. :P

    This is the most ridiculous piece of nonsense out of a celeb’s mouth this week!

    To start with, I’m pretty sure the number one association people make with prince harry is his ginger hair!

    And then the whole posh speech spiel? I can only see this as being relevant amongst native english speakers- basically, the UK and north america. In North America, British english is simply english with an accent. The average individual definitely has no idea what RP etc is, so the whole ‘posh’ thing is only relevant in the UK.

    I’d like to thing the average person from the UK at least knows the main members of his or her royal family.
